Notes
Since you need the juice from 6 lemons to make this drink, I do not suggest trying to squeeze them by hand. Sure, this is an option, but it will take far too long.Instead, use a lemon juicer. It is small and worth the investment. There are electric ones and the kind that you just squeeze the lemons on.
